Total CAD Converter

Total CAD Converter is a fast, reliable Windows tool for batch-converting CAD drawings into shareable and archival formats. It opens classic and modern CAD/plotter files (e.g., DWG, DXF, DWF/DWFX, PLT/HPGL/HPGL2, GL2, SPL/PRN, SVG, CGM, and more) and exports them to PDF, TIFF, JPEG/PNG/BMP, WMF, DXF, SVG, PS, SWF, etc. Use the friendly GUI or fully automate jobs from the command line; a server/ActiveX edition (Total CAD ConverterX) is available for back-end use.

Why it’s useful

• Batch everything: convert whole folders, preserve directory structure, and combine multiple drawings into one multi-page PDF or TIFF. ([CoolUtils][1])
• Make drawings readable: resize, crop, rotate, convert color to black-and-white, and adjust line weight for clearer prints. ([CoolUtils][1])
• Automation-ready: complete CLI (CADConverter.exe <source> <dest> <options>); ConverterX (ActiveX/COM) for server-side or scripted workflows (PHP, Python, Pascal, JS, etc.). ([CoolUtils][2])
• Works offline: process sensitive CAD files locally with no uploads. ([CoolUtils][1])
